The Bitou Cape is a cape in Ruifang District, New Taipei, Taiwan.
The name Bitou means the tip of the nose in Chinese language.[1]
The cape is the northeasternmost cape of Taiwan. It is the sea-eroded type of land form, thus it includes several features such as sea cliffs, undercut bluffs and platforms.[2]
The cape is equipped with a circular route of walking trail, which starts from Bitou Fishing Port and ends up at Bitou Elementary School. It also houses a military barrack and the Bitoujiao Lighthouse at the end of the cape.[3]
The cape is accessible by bus from Taipei Main Station.[2]
